Below is the main trouble-shooting steps missed on the above post.
As per: Pathfinder - https://www.digitalocean.com/community/users/pathfinder - Run below also.
sudo apt-get install python-pip
sudo pip install requests
Add below step too, missed on their aticle.
Need to export the DA_TOKEN variable to match your personal DA API token
export DA_TOKEN=<your-personal-digital-ocean-API-token>
Reboot both servers, all done and test it with curl command or browser
--
Very important point: While you play around with re-booting servers on DA
Secondary is only a back-up server.
Floating IP will point to Secondary server automatically the moment Primary server is down
* But not the vice versa
All done :)
* Open to anyone to correct me, if the * statment is wrong, ready to hear your thoughts too.
